EXECUTIVE CHEF & CO - OWNER

Daniel Strong grew up in Soho, raised with addictions to soy sauce, pizza, noodles, chili peppers, cap'n crunch, and chicken rondeles. Daniel started learning to cook in his parents absence, under the tutelage of a Toulousain playwright baby-sitter. His father, a globe-trotting teacher and consultant, recognized Daniel's early interest, and began exposing his son to world cuisines. Together, they travelled to Beijing, Paris, and Kuala Lumpur, eating their way through stir fries, fricassees, dumplings and durians. Daniel got his first job as a porter/prep cook at Le Pescadou, a Provencal restaurant in Greenwich village. He worked his way up, later cooking at Tribeca Grill, Fatty Crab, and Dell'anima, where he became sous chef before quitting animal derived foods. In 2012, he co-founded Chickpea & Olive where he is currently the executive chef.

CEO

Danielle Ricciardi has worked in the restaurant industry for over a decade. She has bartended, served, and managed at restaurants all around NYC and Chicago. Being Italian American, family and love meant handmade manicotti and gathering around the big pot of Sunday gravy. When she was little, Danielle would help her mom in the kitchen, preparing huge family meals - never the least of which was the Christmas supper. Her passion for food is a hard wooden spoon rooted in her soul. When she founded Chickpea and Olive, it was with the goal of binding her passion for food with compassion; Chickpea and Olive is the expression of peace and compassion through food.
